Thanks Suzanne, for answering! Even I think so.
I think we daydream for a little escape. Our minds are so often bombarded with so much information, day in and day out, that our mind just needs a mini vacation! It's like a time-out for our brains. Much like breathing is mandatory and vital to us, daydreaming may be our mind's way of taking a mandatory and vital break from all the demands that we insist upon it.
Well said!
We all need that vital break. And I see no harm in that.
Thanks MysticMoonligh,t for your interesting response!
I think we daydream because we don't have any limits of our wishes and human nature is such that we are never satisfied.
You are right, our wishes are unlimited and when one wish is achieved, another one is lined up.
Thanks absinfo, for answering the question!
Generally, daydreaming is a good thing to do as long as it is not too much. We realize our goals and ambitions in daydreams, or done something impossible on Earth to relax or release our spirits. Sometimes or many times, we feel it is ridiculous and just wasting time. Mums and teachers may forbidden daydreaming, "do not waste time daydreaming. Go to do something." However, we may find ourselves, find where we are, what we are in the daydream rather than in reality. Bottom line, daydreaming improves our creation. However, too much daydreaming will ruin everything, because it would indulge ourselves into virtual space and cannot wake up. Paulo Coelho said, "You need to wake up if you want to dream."
Agree with Paulo Coelho and You, but unless we dream or daydream, how can we try to turn our beautiful ambitions into reality!
Thanks Hui, for your thoughtful answer!
Everyone is ambitious and to achieve his or her ambitions one thinks about how to fulfill the ambitions. But when we start thinking we have to analyse, plan, try and convert our thoughts into actions, repeat the process to rectify the mistakes, keep on improving till we realize the dreams. To dream is not bad if backed by analysis, plan, action, rectification but day dreaming misses all the element except imaginary thinking and your mind or day dreaming can make you feel at the top of the world just to land on earth within no time.
Very well said, wqindia!
Daydreaming can be good, if we try to act upon it by proper planning and action.
Thanks for your response!

Today I thought about daydreams. And I would like to know what they are? And what are their significance? And to help in answering my questions I gave a brief history of "The Daydream".Daydreams were first questioned back in the late 19th century by a man named Toni Nelson and he thought...

The second 10,000 to get to 20,000 did come faster as several told me it would. Of course the NFL playoffs was a big help with that. And thanks to all the hubbers that have viewed my hubs.

Do you daydream? What do you dream about?

But I do care! I care about personal strength, responsibility and capability. I care about YOU having the freedom to choose YOUR goals, interests, ambitions, and follow YOUR motivations. ... and YOU, who say that to me, know who YOU are!

I am thinking about my life and that maybe a 5 year plan will help me. On one hand I think it will help me prioritize and channel my energy, on the other I am not sure if it will just lead to disapointment and is maybe a bit over ambitious. Any thoughts or opinion would be appreciated, thanks in...
